    Each unit on a map of a forest represents 1 mile. To the nearest tenth of a mile, what is the distance from a ranger station at (1, 2) on the map to a river crossing at (2, 4) ?

    We use our 2 point calculator and we get a distance of 2.2361.

    Since each unit represents 1 mile, we have:
    2.2361 units * 1 mile per unit = 2.2361 miles
